I remember a friend telling me that once
she gave her husband a Wok for Christmas, it was pretty much
Wok-around-the-clock from that point on. As I remember, he was one of the first
men I knew who’d taken over the kitchen and cooked almost everything his family
of 5 ate. Since he worked full time, I
am sure he was as time-pressured as the rest of us and the Wok must have been a
gift from heaven via his wife. Stir-fries
really can save the day. Aside from much
chopping, slicing, dicing and peeling, no cooking technique is as quick to
yield delicious meals in very little time.
In fact, you have to really organize your ingredients since they are
used at lightning quick speeds. And what
I really like is that you don’t need a wok to make these dishes. Any large skillet can work on a stir
fry. And this particular recipe really gives
you a curry in a hurry, a one-dish wonder that we paired with some kale. Next time, we’ll likely go with spinach as
the kale was not a success around our table.
